HOUSING PROGRAMS OVERVIEW

The Cheyenne Housing Authority is continually accepting applications for the following programs:

Housing Choice Voucher

The Housing Choice voucher program is the federal government’s primary program for assisting very low-income households, elderly and disabled persons to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market.  Qualified households use vouchers to subsidize the rent they pay to landlords of privately owned properties.

A household issued a housing voucher is responsible to find a “suitable” housing unit of the family’s choice where the owner agrees to rent to the tenant under the program.  Rental units must meet minimum standards of health and safety as determined by the CHA.

A housing subsidy is paid directly to the landlord by the CHA on behalf of the participating household.  The household then pays the difference between the actual rent charged by the landlord and the amount subsidized by the program.
